Losing the Baby Weight: This Slimming Trick Is Really Working!

Hi friends! I've vented a bit here about my quest to lose the baby weight. After my surgery, I came home lighter, but then I hit a plateau. So I decided to try this trick again, and after being pretty religious about it-- I'm finally slashing more pounds. Details...

****We've talked about a weight loss tip that works for some people, but can be hard to adhere to: not eating after dinner (AKA death to the before-bed snack). Now it's not for everyone (some people can't sleep on an empty stomach), but I've found that not giving in to an evening bowl of cereal, my fave, actually helps me lose weight.

Health experts who buy into this theory believe that by extending our body's natural fast before morning, we give ourselves more opportunities to burn body fat. I have to say--I think there might be some truth to this. I know, it's controversial, but I've lost two pounds recently--by just cutting out my before-bed snack.

I'll admit, it's not easy. Like last night, for example: I was having a battle with myself over raisin bran. Raisin bran! (You need it, no you don't, you need it, NO YOU DON'T.) I finally enlisted the help of my husband, who suggested I just head to bed sans cereal. I did!

OK, so I'm still several pounds away from my goal weight, but I'm getting closer. P.S. Body by Glamour is totally helping, too. Have you signed up?!
